Then you can use the standard drivers to access your cdrom, like mscdex, shsucdx etc. cdrom not have to be mounted. You can also access the mounted cdrom by the use of lredir, or by just symlinking it to the drives directory, but this is not practical, as the cdrom-specific functions like music playing, direct track access etc, won't be available that way. Many games will not detect cdrom and will fail.
